This is a great protein-packed meal I love to make for lunch during the week. I usually take whatever vegetables I have in the fridge, stir fry them with some lively spices, and add them to brown rice and tofu. Use whatever veggies you'd like—below are my usual ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 1 block tofu, firm
  • 2 cup brown rice
  • 2 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tsp ginger, powdered
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 cup broccoli
  • 1 medium (approx 2-3/4" long, 2-1/2 dia.) red bell pepper, sliced
  • ¼ cup green onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp sriracha
